[Verse]
                              G
You were born into the storm
                            Dm7
Cast adrift upon the waves
             F               C
To be living and make life begin
 
[Verse]
                              G
Like the ancient mystic ship
                                 Dm7
Bounding seaward toward the sun
                 F             C
Becomes a cosmic dancer in the wind
 
[Verse]
                                       G
Stars that shine and rains that swirl
                                   Dm7
Sparkling sands of endless worlds
              F                    C
Driven by the thought that men are free
 
[Verse]
                                  G
Love that makes and breaks a man
                                  Dm7
Memories fade and new ones stand
            F                       C      C-Cadd9-C-F
And another ship bounds through the sea
 
[Bridge]
                    G7               Am
Like in dreams, sometimes it's so confusing to change
         Am-G7     F                    G
When you move from where you have been
                  Am      C-Cadd9-C-F
To where you have come
                            G7 Am
Like in life, when you look into a child's eyes
     Am-G7     F               G
They see_ it's all very clear
                   C       Am  C
It's near and then gone
 
[Verse]
                              G
Before the rising of the sun
                                        Dm7
Before the whirling winds were stirred
                  F                  C
Before the simple rhymes of men were sung
 
[Verse]
                                  G
Before the age of hate and pride
                                    Dm7
Before we laughed, before we cried
               F                 C
We were all contained and then begun
